Thread Name: What makes a good song?
Subject: RE: What makes a good song?
Searched the Globe both high and low, to finally find out,
Us all here, all together is what it's all about,
A gathering of my kin, I've been praying for,
Can't be yourself, if you forget, just who you are.

So take off that mask, it's not needed here, you're with your own
Pull up a chair, help yourself, hey, welcome home,
A fair day in good company, speak freely,
It can be hard, if you never stop, just go easy

(Chorus)
I can't sign this song on my own, wouldn't you rise her and sing along
This world of noise drowns out my voice, just join in and harmonise
And follow me for the changes, they come suddenly,
Stay in the key of family
And at the end, it's just begun,
One more verse of this tribal song,

Before too long, all long to be, to belong

Time to go our separate ways, feeling rough
I wouldn't say goodbye, we'll just pick up where we left off,
A scattering like a dandelion in a child's hand
Old seeds take root, in the old dirt that left behind.

Chorus.
